Dame Stephanie Shirley is the most successful tech entrepreneur you never heard of. In the 1960s, she founded a pioneering all-woman software company in the UK, which was ultimately valued at $3 billion, making millionaires of 70 of her team members. In this frank and often hilarious talk, she explains why she went by "Steve," how she upended the expectations of the time, and shares some sure-fire ways to identify ambitious women ... Oh my god. What an extraordinary woman! If you need a dose of inspiration, watch the video at the link. Watch it even if you're highly motivated! Two things: 1) Why the hell didn't I hear about her before today? 2) Why the hell isn't the BBC doing a mini-series dramatizing her life? Or at least a multi-part documentary?! What a story!
